More Than Enough
by Lori Kelley

Michelle had a baby with the first man that said she was pretty
She stayed at home with mom and dad
And worked at Wendy's, the first job she applied for
She never wanted more than what she had

I heard the stories of how my parents had to struggle
Somehow they got the ends to meet
They stayed together, they did it for Michelle and me
And happily, they don't admit defeat

Chorus
I'm not like that
Not that that's so bad
They say that life is tough
And they say they've got enough, but
I want more than enough
Is that asking for too much?

My boyfriend Tommy, he's working at Joe's Auto body
He says he's happy fixin' cars
He makes good money and sometimes he buys me somethin'
But mostly he spends it all in bars

Chorus
I'm not like that
Not that that's so bad
He says that life is tough
And he says he's got enough, but
I want more than enough
Is that asking for too much?

Bridge
I was hypnotized, I was almost paralyzed
They wanted me to stay in line
But they don't understand
That was all their plan, not mine
I'm not like that…
